Something just snapped.

Tue, 04 Dec 2012 03:31:53 +0000http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=269783#comment-407046Probably just reflects that they have a couple of shortstops in the system and he is a placeholder for now. Although I’m surprised they didn’t trade him for three high schoolers with no potential.
